WATCH: Nancy Pelosi SNAPS At MSNBC Reporter After Being Fact-Checked On Trump's Economy

During an MSNBC appearance on Monday, former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) lost her cool with host Katy Tur when discussing the contrast between President Joe Biden's economic record and presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump's booming economy. During the discussion, Pelosi attempted to claim that Trump has the worst job performance in recent history without acknowledging that the coronavirus pandemic shut down the nation's economy.

"And Joe Biden is doing that, created nine million jobs in his term in office," Pelosi asserted. "Donald Trump has the worst record of job loss of any president, so we just have to make sure people know."

"That was a global pandemic," the MSNBC host reminded. Prior to the pandemic, which kicked off in March 2020, Trump's economy saw record low unemployment, low interest rates and inflation, a rising standard of living, and a stock market that was reaching record highs. Despite this fact, Pelosi attempted to claim that the MSNBC host was an "apologist" for the former president.

 "He had the worst record of any president," Pelosi said, frustrated with the anchor. "We've had other concerns in our country. If you want to be an apologist for Donald Trump, that may be your role, but it ain't mine." The MSNBC host, a partisan Democrat on a left-leaning news network, pushed back on Pelosi's claim, saying, "I don't think that anybody can accuse me of that."

Trump's economic record is in stark contrast to President Biden's, and the American people understand the drastic impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on the job market. While Biden claims that his tenure has seen some of the highest job gains in American history, most of those gains stem from Americans losing jobs during the pandemic. According to Heritage Foundation economist E.J. Antoni, most of the post-pandemic jobs gained under Biden have been directly or indirectly tied to the government or were given to foreign-born individuals.

Biden's economic woes haven't let up in recent months either, despite considerable efforts by the Federal Reserve to lower inflation by raising interest rates. The recent inflation report from the Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics for March saw prices surge 3.5 percent year-over-year. According to the bureau, the Consumer Price Index (CPI), a measurement of the cost of goods and services across the economy, rose 0.4 percent for March. The core CPI, which eliminates food and energy prices, also rose 0.4 percent, with the yearly rate at 3.8 percent. It's important to note that most of the inflation increase was caused by rising energy and housing prices. Energy increased by 1.1 percent while housing went up by 0.4 percent, resulting in a total increase of 5.7 percent year-over-year, as previously reported by the DC Enquirer. 

Pelosi can’t even make herself believe her own bullshit on Biden, which is why she lashes out here. That’s how bad things are looking for Democrats now.
